The history of these plots is summarized below. 



Year. Croii. Treatment. 



1886, Oats, Fertilizers applied, 



1887, Oats, Fertilizers applied. 



1888, Hay, No fertilizers. 



1889, Fallowed, Fertilizers applied. 



1890, Peas, No fertilizers. 



1891, Oats, No fertilizers. 



1892, Peas, No fertilizers.

It appears then that in nine years five applications of fertilizer 

 have been made and eight crops produced. 



Since 1891 no statement of the crops grown has been published. 

 In order that these results may have a permanent record the yields 

 from these plots in 1892, 1893 and 1894 are given in Table 1, 

 after which the production for the nine years is condensed in a 

 proper form for comparison.
